After Woomera we headed along the road to Roxby Downs. A menacing sky began to build while I photographed the ruins of Phillip Ponds station.
The tiny camera's tiny battery ran out so I went back to my reading. The note with the sculpture says "This bronze and copper sculpture contrasts a series of small human forms with the architectural weight of on oversize staircase. The artwork has a philosophical aspect by reflecting on the effect of reading on the spirit - 'the more I read the smaller I feel'." Crikey, I dunno about you but if reading made me feel like that I'd stop.
Ooo ... like little graves like that. I guess nothing can be as immense as where those good folk have gone.
ReplyDeleteI like the perspective in the first photo with all the bricks crumbling to the front (kind of ...). The second photo is a little bit too moody for my taste ;-)
